Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 398

"Whoever enters the palace first will be rewarded with thousands of households and ten thousand gold!"

"Whoever enters the palace first will be rewarded with thousands of households and ten thousand gold!"

Chang Mao's voice sounded in Kaijing City, which was full of dilapidated walls, followed by the succession of the heralds one after another.

The eyeballs of countless Ming soldiers who were stimulated by this reward turned red, and their steps added three points of magic power, and they rushed towards the Korean palace in Kaijing City.

"My lord, the Ming army has entered the city."

In the palace, Zheng Daochuan found Li Chenggui among the concubines and concubines who were in constant panic, but was surprised to find that the latter was actually there at the moment, enjoying the flowers?
"Zong Zhi, look, the pear blossoms are blooming."

Li Chenggui pointed to the pear blossoms blooming on the branches, and said sadly: "Li Tongli, when the pear blossoms bloom, our country will perish."

Death. Country!
When these two words came together, it seemed so heavy, a suffocating sense of oppression blocked Zheng Daochuan's heart.

He shook his head and said, "No, great king, you are still here, and North Korea is still here. We will never perish. We will move to the south and continue to organize the people to fight against the Ming people."

As he spoke, he was about to go forward to pull Li Chenggui away, but was rejected by the latter.

"It's not necessary. In fact, you and I both know that once we leave Gyeonggi-do, how can we have a chance to deal with Daming if we only rely on the less than one million Dingkou in the south? It's just a little bit longer to survive.

I'm tired, I don't want to be the king of escape, you go, let the lonely stay here, and die for the country, it's a good reputation. "

After all, I laughed at myself.

"I never expected that Gu is the king who founded the country and now he has become the king who subjugated the country. Hahahaha, Gu, it can be regarded as a precedent in history."

Zheng Dao heard that Li Chenggui already had the will to die, so he didn't persuade him any more. He sat on the steps next to Li Chenggui, and watched the blooming pear blossoms side by side with the latter.

"Aren't you going?"

"If the king doesn't leave, why should the old minister leave?"

There was a smile on Zheng Daochuan's old face: "The old minister followed the king to found the country and established the foundation. Today, he will die with the king and die for the country. It is a worthy death."

"Thank you for your hard work."

At this moment, the two brothers let go of everything and chatted happily with each other.

"Sometimes when I think about it, these ten years are like a dream. I became a general for no reason, seized the royal power for no reason, became a king for no reason, and now the country has perished for no reason."

Li Chenggui said with emotion: "Zongzhi, you said that our life's struggle is meaningless now. Daming wants to invade us and destroy us. We don't even have the ability to fight back. We can only let it go like fish and meat." slaughter.

The dynasties in the Central Plains are changing, but we have to be a vassal state for generations, paying tribute year after year. When the ruler of the next dynasty wants to invade us and accomplish the so-called great cause, we can only do their ruler’s credit. A merit in the book.

Our national destiny, life and everything else seemed so insignificant. "

"The weak eat the strong, the indestructible truth." Zheng Daochuan shook his head and sighed, "Guoheng was destroyed by the weak. If we have to blame, we can only blame ourselves for being too weak."

"The history books will record this war of aggression."

"But the premise is that we still have the opportunity to restore the country in the future."

Zheng Daochuan looked at Li Chenggui and smiled wryly: "If these three thousand miles of beautiful land and mountains become the territory of Ming Dynasty completely, our descendants will never have the opportunity to read this history from history books. At that time, we will not only subjugate the country, but Extinct."

"When the Mongol Yuan swallowed up the Southern Song Dynasty, China also perished. The Mongol Yuan usurped the history and revised the code, burned all the history books that recorded their aggression, and ordered the Confucian family to rewrite the new history. If the Mongol Yuan court can persist for hundreds of years , then China cannot escape the fate of subjugation and genocide."

Li Chenggui felt much better: "Yes, I hope that our descendants will not forget the national humiliation, drive away the Ming people as soon as possible, and restore the country."

At this time, the commander of the guards walked in silently.

"Your Majesty, the Ming army has entered the palace."

Li Chenggui nodded and stood up, glanced at Zheng Daochuan: "Zongzhi, take a step first?"

"Let's go, Your Majesty, the old minister will come later."

Li Chenggui nodded, then nodded to the guards and said, "Send Gu on the road."

The latter knelt down on one knee, crying uncontrollably: "I can't bear it."

"Ugh."

Li Chenggui looked up to the sky and sighed, walked over and pulled out the sword from the guard's waist, looked at the sharp edge, and said good sword.

With the sword on his neck, Li Chenggui took one last look at Zheng Daochuan and at the pear blossoms in full bloom in the garden.

Close your eyes.

In the splash of blood, the old but still tall body collapsed.

The guard stood beside the corpse and wept uncontrollably. Zheng Daochuan knelt down and kowtowed three times, then turned around and jumped into the lake in the garden to drown to death.

When the first Ming army rushed here, all they saw were corpses.

"This is the king of North Korea, right?"

"Maybe."

A small banner official found a surrendered eunuch, brought him here, pointed to Li Chenggui's body on the ground, and asked, "Who is this?"

When the eunuch saw it, he burst into tears immediately.

"This is the king of our country."

The little flag officer was overjoyed immediately, and called out to his soldiers, and they worked together to carry Li Chenggui's body into the house.

"Go get a basin of water and wipe it off."

"Go, grab a few court ladies, put on makeup, and bring some needles and thread to sew up the wound."

"Slow down, sloppy."

Well, a few people were busy around Li Chenggui's body, and they were more attentive than serving their daughter-in-law.

After waiting for a few people to finish their work, half an hour passed. In the end, the little flag officer was very satisfied with the lifelike Li Chenggui in front of him.

"Go, send it to Chang Shuai."

"Please do it!"

The pain of the subjugated and the cheers of the conqueror formed a sharp contrast in this small harem garden at this moment.

The country will always be destroyed by weakness.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten. Don't blame anyone.

Li Chenggui didn't understand this until his death. What he really wanted to blame was himself, why the state power and its system under his leadership as the king of a country could not create a strong country.

As Zheng Daochuan said before, China also fell under the wrong leadership of Zhao Song. If the historical line does not change, it will also usher in a second subjugation under Zhu Ming's wrong leadership hundreds of years later.

The suffering of subjugation is not only borne by the rulers, the common people are also unable to escape the ravages of war, but mistakes can only be made by the ruling class!
Li Chenggui should have been vigilant when he met Chen Yunfu many years ago.

The latter, has never been a friendly person.

The snow-white pear blossoms are still blooming, facing the direction of the sky.

No dust, no blood.

So pure and intoxicating.
